My name is Baiba Purins. I was born in Stockholm 1945. My parents are Latvian.
I used to work in advertising. Now I express myself through my art. Since 2010 I live in Österlen.
My art reflects the magic in life, exploring the treasure to discover just below the surface, the greatness of all the small things.
My sculptures are small format. I use simple materials like papier-maché, textile, glass, metal and things I find hidden away and forgotten. In my hands they are transformed to new life, recreated.
Maybe you will see what I see. Or you will have your own vision.
It´s magic.
